EFFECTS or THE NEW Law.
A FOSSIL FIND.
The Remains Of a Huge Animal Elk
humed

TIrFIN, o., April 20 The osseous remains
OF a mastodon were found near the village Of
1yro, on the Northwestern railroad, about
twenty-five miles southeast of this city.
While engaged in ditchiDg on the Walter
Green farm, one mile and a half east OF Tyre,
}. ID. Michner came upon the dccayed bones
OF mammoth proportions. The remains thus
far unearthed we're found at a depth Of not
more than two feet, in q marsby piece Of
ground just east OF tine house, and that other
bones will yet he found is quite sure. The
bones are of unusual proportions, but are
mostly so far decayed as to render 1t impes-
sible to measure them. The teeth OF the ami
NAL are almost perfectly preserved because Of
the enamel. The largest tooth found meas
ured six and three quarters inches in length
and four inches ia width, and twenty inches
in circumference. 1t weighed two pounds
and ten ounces. The other teeth diminish in
size to the smallest, which IL three inches
each way and weighs less than enc pound.
These are the second remains Of this class
found in this section.

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper il
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY.sEvEN YEARS Gifts existence. In
its columns has always been found a mirror
of passing events, and the careful chroui-
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. Il is always
welcomed in tho household while in the
counting room and workshop it has oscome
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for Oh.
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our OVID domain as well as
from every part of the babtablo globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE TO publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve ana
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full aud
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will,
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of thestate, is pub
liahed regularly, and all events Of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
monweath are to be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzErrE's circulation is steadily il
'reasing, especially among people who con-
suit its advertising columns before purchas
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer.
red from the fact that large country edi'
tion-nearly as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
week, and is read by thousands, most OF
vhom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj
7ertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, ap-
parent.
